Although in this case, with the insurance agent being the one to push UBS to go through with the deal, I would have thought UBS could get better terms.

Sounds like science working properly. That said, from the description it’s hard to be sure how much of the new theory Hawking actually agreed with - “I read into his eyes that he agreed with it” doesn’t seem like a basis for authorship.

Sounds like the hospital had their infosec well in hand. That's rare.

If you absolutely want client apps to check against a remote licensing source, it would make more sense to use an HTTP API for that rather than accessing a SQL Server or MySQL database directly. Requiring Entity Framework for the app is add

Maintenance overhead. If I buy, they manage configuration, updates, backups, etc.

Both AWS and Azure's managed SQL Server database solutions are hobbled like that. They can be replication targets but not sources . At least RDS for SQL Server lets you do native backup/restore, so while it's slow there&#x

And a bank deliberately taking on bad assets also does the opposite of that.

Why are mergers the go-to solution for rescuing banks? Why do they think that, rather than "arrest[ing the] collapse in confidence in Credit Suisse," a merge won't just cause a similar collapse in confidence for UBS too?

That's probably a good thing, because that makes clear you missed the point about the Docker Official Images program. Docker's support for open-source organizations has nothing to do with the Official Images program; they are gene

If deleted organizations are not released, does that mean there's no road to getting the namespace back if an organization decides 2-3 years down the road to return to Docker?

SVB was solvent before the run. Is that still the case even after Wednesday/Thursday's fire sales, where they had to sell a bunch at a loss?

> The difference here is that the "losers" made was supposed to be an incredibly safe bet. It's not a bet if it's impossible to lose.

If you have any money in any other bank, you're paying for this.

But it is a loss to taxpayers. Anybody with money in an unaffected bank will end up footing the bill.

Not sure how "taxing depositors at other banks to pay for uninsured deposits" is "reasonable operation of the FDIC". (And yes, it's taxing the depositors. Because even if it's "officially" a fee to th

If they have more than $250K in the one institution: yes, they should. Better yet would be spreading their deposits around, but if they don't want to do that, they should take the necessary steps to evaluate the risk appropriately.

If my local CU had competitive interest rates I would stay there. But their best savings accounts are still only a pitiful 0.16% interest. I'm in the process of moving most of my money out of there.

No - Social Security for the people who are already retired is paid for by the people who are currently working. Nobody is "paying into" anything.

A comment key works for commenting JSON objects, but not for commenting specific keys on an object or values in an array.

In that scenario, not going opt-out is not a mistake. But going opt-in probably is a mistake, because the data will be useless, so it’s a waste of time to implement.

It only uses the first 5 letters so administrator should be fine (“admin” isn’t a built-in). Guest could be interesting, though.

From a compliance perspective that would work. However, that means that franchisees in high-tax areas like Chicago make 10% less per sale than those in Oregon or Delaware. That doesn't seem tenable in the long run.

The people installing the certs aren't necessarily the people buying the certs. I can't do anything to automate the cert purchases at my current workplace; that's a separate team that I have no control or influence over. Sh

The maximum expiration time is now down to 13 months, for certs that need to be valid in a browser. And if you want to cycle yours more frequently, you can. But there's enough places that can't set up automated processes that tr

Downpour is my vendor of choice for most books, but GraphicAudio also sells the titles DRM-free directly, with the option of lossless format. (And in Sanderson's case it doesn't look like Downpour has all of their titles.)
